Chondromalacia patellae in both kness

Hi I have chondromalacia patellae in both kness. It is worse on the left knee because I got kicked on this knee once after developing this condition.

I am now 31 and I do exercise since I am 15. I also have lombar pains once in a while.

I have 3 deviation on my column, although my orthopedist says he wouldn't believe if he hadn't seen my X-Ray. (he told me that he normally realise deviation on the first sight). The exercise has helped me a lot!

When it's too cold my kness hurt, but if I take a hot shower it goes away. On the summer I have little problems. And when I am exercising it hurts only when my body is still cold, as soon it gets warm I don't feel any pain. My lombar and my knee normally will hurt hours after I've finished the exercise, it feel sore as I had taken too much.

My family has historic of bad column and I also have a tendency to lose hair (also an heritage from my family), frenquent sore colds and very dry body skin.

Try Rhus Tox 200C just 3 doses on a single day. No more doses after these 3.

This should give some relief. However , inorder to have permanent cure, we would need more information about your temperament , behaviour, your likes , dislikes , habits, food cravings/aversions , sleep patterns , any recurrent dreams , any life event you can correlate to the start of the problem .. and any other symptom which differentiates you as a person.

I’m 31.
1,71m.
58Kg.
Brazilian.

I’m an actress and I run my own company of theatre producer with my partner who is also my boyfriend.

I grew up too fast and the cartilage of my knees couldn’t grow as fast as my body, so when I was 12, both of my knees started to hurt because the cartilage was too thin. Back them my doctor said I should stop playing any sports and climbing stairs. So I did. This could have been the beginning of condromalacia?

Another important event was that I’ve lived in Canada for 2 years (7 years ago) and everything has changed since that. Before Canada, I used to be really distracted, almost a weirdo. I was always day dreaming and it was really difficult for me to follow a conversation. I had no interest in news. (Now I have a little bit). And I was always happy (because I coudn’t realize anything. My distraction used to protect me).

After I finish my studies in Brazil, I got really depressed because I didn’t know what to do with my life. So I decided to spent 4 months in Canada studding English. That was a tremendous difficult thing for me to do because I am really attached to my parents. Then I got a job, and a boyfriend and I’ve spent 2 year in Canada. I almost got married and became a Canadian.

I got really stressed in Canada. First because I was needy and second because Canada is a country where you have to be always angry and fight for things and, back there, I didn’t know how to do that.(I've learnt how to be explosive there.)

Third because Canada is a country that tries really hard not to be sexist, but curiously, is. The laws aren’t but people are. Before going to Canada (even being distracted) I had a tendency to get angry about any sexist condition but once in Canada it became a huge problem for me! I have no words to explain how stressed I got. That was the time when I had my first serious hair loss.

In Brazil I had a very light PMS which I treated with calcarea carbonica 1000 once every 4 months and it used to work 100%. Unfortunately, I realize that calcarea carbonica also makes my voice weak (with is bad on stage). It also makes me shy, insecure and worried about organizing everything like my clothes’ draw and everything in my house and I am not like that. Also I can’t be shy and insecure if I am an actress. Not to mention the bad effect on my sex life. I don’t think it is worthy.)

In Canada I had PMS of 17 days and on the opposite of most women I had desire for salt.

Then I came back to brazil and started to run (as an exercise). One or two years lather I realize my knees were very noise. It was condromalacia. Then I got kick on the left knee, and it got worse.

Canada is now part of my past and I don’t think about it normally. I am really happy now. I love my job and my life! I am very thankful for that. I am also religious. I work in a kardec spirit center (like a church, but it is another religion).

I am instable (not related to pms)
Physical exercises are my hobby. I love them! Everything on my body gets better after sweating. My mood, my intestine (that doesn’t work too good), I feel happier!

I am very thoughtful, care a lot with well being of others around me, I am anti sexist, I don’t eat red meat (just chicken and fish) and I am thinking about stop to eat chicken.

When I’ve opened the company I realize that all the human relation that has to be done, my partner was doing. So I decided to get more involved with this kind of task. I have no problems to do that. I do a very good job. It’s not difficult, but I have to make an effort. It’s almost a physical effort. I feel lazy with people. I feel more comfortable on the phone, on the computer, not with strange people.

I get angry really easy and I don’t show my anger, I mean, I became serious but I am not going to fight and shout with everybody.

With my boyfriend things are different. He is the person that knows me the most and whenever I have a problem I ask for help or to express my angriness. With him I shout.
I am really sensitive. Spiritual sensitive too. I know if I can trust someone at the first talk and I am always right.

I love Japanese food, fish, wine, spicy food, juicy fruits, vegetables, onion, garlic, parsley, cinnamon, watermellow, cereal bar, rice, beans.
Like pancakes, bread, cheese, yogurt, cereal, alcohol.
I hate junk food, fried stuff, mayonnaise, meat, hamburgers
I don’t hate but I don’t miss: chocolates, cake, pizza.
(I am always monitoring my weight, so I tend to get away of fat things. My brain doesn’t accept them anymore).

If I am not working I am exercising, spending time with my boyfriend, or parents. But most of the time I am working. I work a lot.

I probably should tell you that I’ve been taking natrum muriaticum 30ch because I’m constantly feeling tired with reason (I have no weekend, I am always working) and almost every Monday I wake up with cold sore and really tired with no strength to work or to do anything. (Monday should be the day that I rest, since I work on weekends).

So, I took it on last Monday (June 9th, 2008). The cold sore didn’t develop and I’m now working with disposition. First, I got really sleepy but on the next couple of days I became workaholic. (I guess I finally found the strength to do all the things I couldn’t. I even finish my book with I’ve been writing for 4 years! It was finished but I didn’t have the energy to review it. Now I did it!)

Natrum Muriaticum has also developed (or bring it out) a pulsating pain into my ears, the orbit of my eyes, (or my eyes. I can’t tell) and head. So I took it again and it got better. I still have the pulsating pain, but it is weaker now.

I’ve noticed that natrum muriaticum has a good effect on my hair. My hair is really weak and it usually get worse before period. My skin got better too (I have acne).


Lately I’ve been feeling my eyes too dry. It doesn’t matter if I use glasses or contact lenses ( I have hypermetropia – right eye 2.75 – left eye 1.75)

I have also almost cured my PMS (12 days before period!) with florals (Bach and orchid). I’m almost sure it was the “angel of protection” (orchid system) that has cured me. I used to get very depressed, sad, irritated and with no desire to work (actually with only desire to sleep and watch TV and nothing else). But the condition that used to bother me the most was the tenderness on my breast and the fluid retention all over my body.

I used to be insane about salt and have no desire to sweets, but now I like both on a normal amount. Last month it was my first month with no fluid retention, and no breast pain, but I still wanted to watch tv and do nothing for 6 days. I guess the floral “angel of protection” has cured me because of it I’m not needy anymore. And I used to be a lot! But I also took trumpet vine.

But a couple of months ago my boyfriend has cured me emotionally about sexism. I used to get sad and stressed for any sexist event that happened to me and now I understand that I have to live my life the way I believe and that should be enough for me. I am not gonna change the world with my anger (only my own body). My mind has always known that but my heart didn’t want to understand.

Now, after 7 years, I am getting cured. I want to ask you not to forget about it when prescribing a medicine for condromalacia, because what usually happens is I go to an homeopath doctor and get a prescription for my allergies that makes my pms cames back.

Oh! I forgot to say that I have dust allergies. And that nat. muri. Has cured a mucous that dropped constantly on the back of my through for years. (it also became after Canada).

another thing that I remember is that when I go to bed I always feel hot. sometimes I feel need to open the window or to turn on the fan, even if it's winter. when I wake up I always feel cold (even if it's 30ºC).then I take breakfast (actually just a cup o black coffee and I start to sweat).

I also love acid fruits as lemon and pineapple

Hi ,

I am traveling right now.

I will come back to your case in a day or two.
 
sameervermani last decade

DDenise last decade

Sameer

My question is: should I take rhus tox 200 until you find the right medicine or not?

I am not in pain. I only explain about how the pain is so you could have a bigger picture of the situation. My biggest worry is to find a cure because I don't want to have a limited life because of my knees in the future. But I can wait for you. I have no pain.

Is it better to take the rhus tox or to wait for the right medicine?
 
DDenise last decade
I'd like to apologize for my repetitive writing and maybe rude. It's been such a long time since I last spoken in English that I want to explain really well, so I am sure you understand.
 
DDenise last decade
also, I'd like to thank you for you precious help and time. I almost wanna say that the result doesn't matter because of a such beautiful gesture of yours.

How does it work? I still dind't get it. Is it a bunch of doctor that spend a part of the day helping other people? If only more people were like that...
 
DDenise last decade
Okay , if you have taken 2 doses of Nat-m 30, let us wait for the next week or so.

You can keep updating me about the changes.

We will move to 200c potency once the 30c has exhausted its action.

Your english is very good, so do not worry.

And, you are welcome !

That pain I have told you in the region of my face is back.I can't tell what is hurting (head,ear,eyes). It's a pulsating pain. Maybe it's a flu, but it began with nat. mur.
Is nat. mur. creating it or is nat. mur. bringing something bad out?

Other thing: I am having a discret vaginal bledding. (remember I've told you I had a vaginal pain? well it was because it was bledding) it's very little in amount. like 6 drops and maybe it's an ovulation pain, but I am sure it was nat. mur.

years ago I had HPV and after the cure I had this kind of bledding when ovulating. Now it seems some medicines bring it back.
Again: is nat. mur. creating it or bringgin it out?
(other times when I had this bledding my pms was terrible!)let's see...
 
DDenise last decade
The Nat-m seems to be bringing a mild return of old symptoms.

So, let us just wait and watch till this response comes to a complete halt.
 
sameervermani last decade
ok!
 
DDenise last decade
bad news!
pms is back. condromalacia is hurting. hair loss is back!
also I have vaginal itchy, really sensitive, dreamming about an old friend who doesn't talk to me anymore. I don't understand why I am dreaming about her because I don't miss her.
and some Weight gain.
 
DDenise last decade
How many days have passed since the last Nat-m dose ?
 
sameervermani last decade
It's been 15 days, but it was a false alarm. All those symptoms (condromalacia, pms, hair) had last only for one day. I am now really well... I don't get it. Do you?
 
DDenise last decade
I've forgot to tell you that one or two weeks ago, nat mur had given me difficulty to breath and pain inside the chest(but not any more)
 
DDenise last decade
That is okay. It's just a curative process during which some old problems return briefly.

We are right on track. Let the remedy work. No need to repeat right now.

Keep updating me every few days.
 
sameervermani last decade
Could you please prescribe me a medicine for extremely dry hair and skin?
 
DDenise last decade
How do you feel in terms of your other problems ?
 
sameervermani last decade
During all last week, I had a very bad fluid retention. It was my pre mestrual period. I also experienced some light mod swings. My period came and yesterday, as soon as I got in bed, I felt difficult to breath. When I woke up today the cold sore was back on my lips and my skin lips is very dry. (I have very dry skin and hair, but when the cold sore pups up it get worse) I didn't want to take nat. mur. cause I think it has made the fluid retention to come back. What should I do?
